History

1.2.0 (2021-04-30)

• Added a new method to the class Lexique383. The method is Lexique383.get_lex() .

• This new method accepts either a single word as a string or an iterable of strings and will return the asked lexical information.

• Expanded sample usage of the software in the docs.

• Substantial update to the code and docs.

• Removed unneeded dependencies as I reimplement some functionality myself.

1.1.1 (2021-04-28)

• Added a new method to the class LexItem. The method is LexItem.to_dict() .

• This new method allows the LexItem objects to be converted into dicts with key/value pairs corresponding to the LexItem.

• This method allows easy display or serialization of the LexItem objects.

• Lexical Items having the same orthography are stored in a list at the word’s orthography key to the LEXIQUE dict.

• Expanded sample usage of the software in the docs.

• Substantial update to the code and docs.

1.1.0 (2021-04-28)

• Drastically reduced dependencies by ditching HDF5 and bolcs as the package is now smaller, faster an easier to build.

• Lexical Items having the same orthography are stored in a list at the word’s orthography key to the LEXIQUE dict.

• Implemented the “FlyWheel” pattern for light Lexical entries rsiding entirely in memory at run time.

• Added sample usage of the software in the docs.

• General update to the code and docs.

1.0.7 (2021-04-27)

• First release on PyPI.
